Miranda Lambert took to the stage at Stubb's in Austin over the weekend and debuted "B-tch On The Sauce," another new track from her upcoming album Postcards From Texas.

Lambert shared a clip of the performance of "B-tch On The Sauce" via Instagram, and due to its saucy language, you can watch it here. Call it a hunch, but after hearing just a short clip, this song already has "classic" written all over it.

Lambert shared a photo gallery from the intimate show that was also very poignant. She wrote, "Last night I played a surprise show at @stubbsaustin. Almost exactly 20 years ago to the day (Aug 28, 2004) I played my 1st showcase for a major label here. I still have that same fire that I had 20 years ago and y’all sure do too.


Lambert first announced Postcards From Texas last month. The 14-track album is due out on September 13 and is her first release from her new label, Big Loud Texas. (A full track list is below.)

The lead single from the album is "Alimony." As previously reported, Lambert said of writing the song, "We were out in my barn; I was showing Shane and Natalie the horses, and I asked if he had any other titles. He said he had one, and I was like, 'What is it? Because your last one was 'Looking Back on Luckenbach,' which I didn't think you could top. He said, 'Well, 'If you're gonna leave me in San Antone, remember the Alamo-neeeee…" Natalie and I were like, 'Alright, Shane! Stop showing off.'"

She continued, "And once we had the line – 'If you're gonna leave me in San Antone, remember the alimony' – we were off! We used every Texas metaphor we could come up with on purpose; we wanted to take something sh-tty and put some humor back in it. I mean, the guy gets out pretty easy if all he does is move back in with his mom."
